We are looking for two new voluntary Board Members with skills in charity finance and accounting, and mental health provision to join our governing body.

BOARD MEMBER VACANCY: CHARITY FINANCE AND ACCOUNTING

This role involves oversight and scrutiny of our financial management systems to ensure they are both efficient and legally compliant. They will be required to attend both the full Board and Scrutiny Committee meetings providing support to the staff team in its management of the organisation’s finances and reporting to the full Board on financial matters.

BOARD MEMBER VACANCY: MENTAL HEALTH

Many elements of our work have direct and indirect bearings on lower level mental health and overall well-being. Support that improves well-being can take many forms and we are interested in supporting individuals and communities to develop self-help projects. Therefore, we are looking for people with skills or a background in mental health provision – whether from a user or practitioner perspective.
